The purpose of multipe sequences in a project is, that you can build your main sequence from other sequences, and in that way get a kind of tree structure in your movie. This make it a lot easier, as the sub sequences stay in sync (and may be applied with effects/transitions as a whole) when you move them around in the main sequence.

You can make a movie of every sequence in the project, but whether it makes sense is up to you :-)

Thank you. All your answers were helpful. I tried marking all your answers as helpful, but the forum wouldn't let me.

You are most welcome. The important thing is that you got the info that you needed, and that you say the answers were helpful to you, is as good as it gets.

I also found some good video tutorials last night. And one thing that was said about sequences was to think of them as individual mini projects.

That is pretty much how I describe them in the PrElements forum. PrE does not have Sequences, so the Timeline is the basic foundation of each Project. When making mention of Sequences in PrPro, I typify them as "mini Projects in a 'master' Project."

Another analogy that I have seen is that the Sequence is like an empty set, or stage. You then "decorate" it with all the elements and "actors" to complete your production. Then there is the construction analogy, where the Sequence is the "foundation." The last one suffers a bit, when one considers some of the more intricate applications of Sequences, like Nesting, but starts off a pretty good one also.
